Moray man who overturned his car whilst trying to evade police chase banned for over two years

A dangerous driver who led police on a chase through Moray before overturning his car has been banned from driving for more than two years.

Steven Thompson, 54, was spotted by concerned witnesses driving erratically at various locations on the Cullen to Keith road and then in and around Dufftown.

Police were called after Thompson, of Raffan Road in Buckie, was seen weaving across the carriageway on the Keith to Drummuir road at around 3pm on January 2 this year.

Thompson caused a collision with another driver on the B9009 Dufftown to Auchbreck road when he repeatedly drove onto the opposite carriageway and hit into the near side of the other motorist’s vehicle, causing the wing mirror to fall off.
